Deformation Styles and Multi-Stage Evolution History of a Large Intraplate Strike-Slip Fault System in a Paleozoic Superimposed Basin: A Case Study From the Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The complex deformation styles of large intraplate strike-slip fault systems in the multi-stage superimposed basin are hot topics worldwide. This article proposes structural models and evolution processes for such strike-slip fault systems in the Tarim ...

Equal spacing of strike-slip faults [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1976
Summary Strike-slip fault systems on continents frequently occur in groups of several roughly equally-spaced faults. In this article these systems are simulated by a model. A physical mechanism is then presented, which appears to explain the phenomena shown by the model both qualitatively and to a certain extent quantitatively.

The characteristics of strike-slip faults and their control on hydrocarbon distribution in deep carbonate reservoirs of the central Sichuan Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The past decade has witnessed a breakthrough in the gas exploration of deep marine carbonates of the central Sichuan Basin. Deep faults research has also attracted increasing attention, as faulting plays an important role in reservoir control.

The Advances and Challenges of the Ediacaran Fractured Reservoir Development in the Central Sichuan Basin, China

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The largest Precambrian gasfield in China has been found in the central Sichuan Basin. It has been assumed as an Ediacaran (Sinian) mound–shoal, microfacies-controlled, dolomite reservoir.

Study on the relationship between multi-stage strike-slip mechanism and basin evolution in Fangzheng fault depression

open access: yesEarth Sciences Research Journal, 2018
Fangzheng fault depression is controlled by the northern of the Tan-Lu fault zone. It undergoes multi-stage strike-slip, extrusion modification, and erosion of the thermal uplift, forming a tectonic pattern of uplifts connected with sags.

Control of strike-slip faults on Sinian carbonate reservoirs in Anyue gasfield, Sichuan Basin, SW China

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2023
The largest Precambrian gas field (Anyue Gasfield) in China has been discovered in the central Sichuan Basin. However, the deep ancient Ediacaran dolomite presents a substantial challenge due to their tightness and heterogeneity, rather than assumed ...

Geomorphic signal of active faulting at the northern edge of Lut Block. Insights on the kinematic scenario of Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent works documented Neogene to Quaternary dextral strike-slip tectonics along the Kuh-e-Sarhangi and Kuh-e-Faghan intraplate strike-slip faults at the northern edge of the Lut Block of Central Iran, previously thought to be dominated by sinistral ...

The Fault Effects on the Oil Migration in the Ultra-Deep Fuman Oilfield of the Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
A giant, ultra-deep (>7000 m) strike-slip fault-related oilfield has been found in the central depression of the Tarim Basin. However, little research has addressed this discovery to understand the fault effects on the oil migration, which constrains the

Slip in the 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquakes, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The 3rd September 2010 Mw 7.1 Darfield and 21st February 2011 Mw 6.3 Christchurch (New Zealand) earthquakes occurred on previously unknown faults. We use InSAR ground displacements, SAR amplitude offsets, field mapping, aerial photographs, satellite ...
